The Thessaloniki Regional Railway,[1] (Greek: Προαστιακός Σιδηρόδρομος Θεσσαλονίκης, Proastiakós Sidiródromos Thessaloníkis) is a three-line Proastiakos commuter rail service connecting the city of Thessaloniki with its metropolitan area and other regions beyond, including Imathia, Pella and Serres.
Unlike the Athens Suburban Railway, the three lines served are rather medium-distance regional rail connections on three major axes to Edessa and Serres, Central Macedonia, and Larissa, Thessaly. Thessaloniki metropolitan area itself will be served by the Metro Thessaloniki.
